We flew the Washington Wizards from Oakland to Phoenix last night. It was like a redeye for me—leaving at 11.45 PST and arriving at 0220 MST, which was 0420 on Laingsburg time. At least a got a whopping four hours of sleep before springing wide awake at 0715! However, it IS sunny in Phoenix and I'm not here for long, so its off to the pool for me to soak up some rays before I head for the blizzard in LGA.

I got into SFO at about 9.45 pm last night...then the caliope music started. The transportation guys who were supposed to take us from SFO to OAK said that they had no record of us. I called Delta Crew Accommodations. They put me on hold. They called the transportation company. They talked. Eventually, it got sorted out. Now I'm wondering if they have room for us in the inn. I'm a little worried. Good thing. I call Crew Accommodations again. Kristie agrees to check. Oops...no record of you there either, but don't worry, it's all taken care of. Then I wonder if we have any transportation tomorrow night from the hotel to OAK to fly out the Washington Wizards. I call the transportation company. Nope. No record of you. I call Kristie again. She sorts it all out for me. Hopefully, they will be here to pick us up tonight. I'm a little skeptical.

A day off in Oakland for me before we fly OAK to PHX at 2300. I went to bed at midnight EST and was wide awake at 0410. Ugh...it's going to be a long day. I'm not a very good pilot. Good pilots can sleep 8 hours any time, anywhere. Not me...
